One batch would be super gelly and the next perfect and then yet another would totally separate. They all washed great, some just needed more shaking in the bottle before use (which is kinda a pian in the butt). So I switched to the powdered version (made with exactly the same ingredients as my liquid minus the h20) and it is perfect!!!!!! I use a 1/4 cup in each load, grate my fels naptha with small side of my cheese grater (got one just for laundry so I dont have to keep washing soap off of it) and sometimes add oxiclean. It has saved me hundreds of dollars. Always works great! I have two boys in football and baseball - and I just make a paste of the same stuff to pre-treat big ugly stains and it works perfect!
